Description Rowdy 2011-10-27 12:27:26 CEST

Description of problem:
I installed emacs-23.3.  It linked /etc/alternatives/emacs to /usr/bin/emacs-23.2 instead of /usr/bin/emacs/23.3.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
emacs-23.3-2.mga2.src.rpm

How reproducible:
I haven't tried to reproduce it by uninstalling/reinstalling Emacs.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Emacs.
2. ls -l /etc/alternatives/emacs

Comment 2 Malo Deniélou 2012-01-28 14:22:06 CET

Is it still valid? 
I can't reproduce: my /etc/alternatives/emacs points to the right /usr/bin/emacs-23.3

Comment 3 Malo Deniélou 2012-01-28 15:30:32 CET

Actually I just managed to reproduce it. With an update of Mageia 1 to current Cauldron.

So there is a problem in the update-alternative part of the emacs spec.

Status: NEW => ASSIGNED

Comment 4 Malo Deniélou 2012-01-28 16:21:14 CET

Should be fixed with emacs-23.3-5.
Thanks for the report.
